`Naked on the North Shorecomes to Lucan
By Kate Monk
T-A'Reporter
LUCAN - The Lucan Heritage
Society and Ted Johns are teaming
up: to present Nuked on the North
Shore on June 6 and 7 in Lucan.
The one-man show, a fundraiser for
the society, takes the audience to
the small fishing village of Old Fort
Bay in Labrador, Newfoundland.
Johns, the play's writer and per-
fornter, uses a combination of hu-
mor, poetry and mime. According
to Johns, the characters featured in
this piece are composite figures.
What is intended is to reflect the
Spirit of the place and the effects of
isolation on all concerned.
After graduating from university,
Johns lived inOld Fort Bay. •
"I, in my innocence, iinagined
that Old Fort would he a sort of
Peggy's Cove. However, nothing
could really prepare me for the•iso=
lation • and the age of the place,"
said Johns.
According to Johns' research,
Jacques Cartier encountered fisher-
men when he visited the arca. in
1535.
In the winter of 1967/8, Old Fort
did not have electricity, telephones,
•
•churches, police. a doctor or a road.
While Johns lived in the area, elec-
• tricity arrived.
"Thus, Old Fort, which had for
Ted Johns' one-man play, Naked on the North Shore, re-
flects the spirit of Old Fort Bay in Labrador. Johns and the
Lucan Heritage Society will be presenting the play on June
6 and 7 in Lucan.
